Resumen
Nine additional species of Eleutherodactylus are described from the Cordillera Occidental. One of these occurs in the transition between lowland forests and cloud forests in northwestern Colombia, one is found in cloud forests of western Antioquía, another is found in cloud forests between Cali and Popayán, and the remainder are species found on the Serranía de los Paraguas. The distributions of the 102 species of Eleutherodactylus found in western Colombia are summarized using data from a series of transects.
